Noticed that all of Acoustica legacy products are available for free:

https://acoustica.com/legacy

Wondering if anyone has experience with them, any hidden gems?

Hi,

None of them are plugins. The two burner programs don’t work with Windows 8 or 10. The two converter programs don’t work with 64-bit Windows (unless you spoof 32-bit). The mixer and Beatcraft both work with recent versions of Windows, but not without some errors and workarounds. MP3 Audio Mixer is Mixcraft’s dad.

As a marketing suggestion, it may be worthwhile to offer the Acoustica legacy plugins as a free to download plugin suite. Not sure how those still on MX8 or lower would feel, but I think it would bring some eyes to the site via "free plugin" articles and the like.

Hi,

Most people have Windows 10 these days, and most of those legacy programs don't work in Windows 10.

Hi Greg,

I was really wondering if any solution for Windows 10 is coming any soon. I am also using this software and have a Windows system. So trying to figure out if any Windows alternative is available.
